Thumpercross is back for 2013

The Dandenong  Motorcycle Club will host the Warragul Toyota Thumpercross at Lardner Park on November 2-3, 2013.

The event will be open to junior and pre 1985 bikes on the Saturday and all classes of seniors on the Sunday.

A full range of age and capacity classes will be run over the two days of competition on a natural fast-flowing grass track at a fantastic venue.

Event organiser Glenn Capuano says there is plenty of excitement amongst riders, from both off-road and motocross disciplines, about competing in this fun format of racing.

“Riders have been screaming out for this format to be reinvented. It will also be great to see bikes from a bygone-era competing as both the Viper and Vinduro racing now have a huge following,” Glenn said.

“Juniors will also be able to get their bikes on the limiter around the grass track. We will see some of the best riders in Australia from both disciplines go head to head in what should be a great weekend of racing,” Glenn added.

There will also be heaps of give a ways to riders that enter from some fantastic sponsors that have got behind the event.

Entries will fill fast so don’t delay as they will be accepted on a first in best dressed basis. One day licences are available for pre-85, vets and masters classes if applied for 21 days before the event.

2013 Harrow Vinduro a huge success

The biggest event on the Australian vinduro calendar is over for another year, and what an event it was!

Enthusiasts from almost all corners of Australia, with approximately 200 vintage dirt bikes, filled this tiny township over the weekend. The 50km + course was divided into six sections that provided plenty of challenges. The early arrival of rain on Sunday made some sections even more challenging. Despite the damp conditions, everyone agreed that 2013 Harrow Vinduro was  awesome.

The guys from the ACT won a well deserved state team award, and International 66 the team prize (sponsored by the Barossa Photo Company). A large amount of merchandise from sponsors Wurth was handed out at the post event presentation too. 

Photos are beginning to appear on various sites, and Tony Tervoert is putting the finishing touches to the DVD, which is available to order now via the Barossa Photo Company website. Check out a preview at the link below:
